Mystery, beauty, melancholy. “Crow on a withered branch; autumn twilight.” Crow, leaf, evening dusk, poet—all have arisen together, all are vanishing. If some unarticulated longing moves your heart, this is yugen.
Haiga prints are based on a style of Japanese painting and the aesthetics of haiku poetry. In haiga, poetry and imagery combine to reveal the mystery of simple, and at times profound, images of the everyday world. In my haiga print series, photographs combine with poetry, zenga, and washi textures to create meditative art for your home.
